The Pete LeClair class was great! We carved a Hobo and Pete’s instructions where right on spot. Went from a ruff-out to painting in four days. One day was all on construction of caricature faces which was very informative! Paul and Rusty were very gracious hosts. We would all like to thank them for the food and the clean up each day. Believe me, some days there were so many wood chips on the floor of their living room, it looked like farm animals should live there. We would like to thank Pete for sharing his talent with us. We made another life long friend! Here is a slide show of the event (click the link below). http://youtu.be/xoAIX-yfCiM

The Club provides carving classes during the year at nominal cost for those who wish to improve their carving skills.

At the end of each monthly meeting the club has show and tell. Members bring in their carving and show their talent . Some share their techniques others have stories and jokes. All in all it's an entertaining time. At the end of each year there is a drawing for all the participants. 2 lucky members will WIN 100 BUCKS . Just for showing their work.So come to the meeting and enjoy the show!
